Three days before the September 9, 1989 fire at Orion Tower, an unmarked flatbed truck arrived at 03:00 and loaded all three unopened pallets back up. In August 1984, three wooden pallets marked 'ORION R&D // CRE-7 HARDWARE' were delivered under armed security escort. Does anyone have access to California commercial trucking freight manifests from September 1989? -- === Bruno MacDonald === Dept of Electrical Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology "The hatch is open.
